Vedclass · Answer

(A) The ozone layer in the Earth's atmosphere is primarily responsible for absorbing ultraviolet $(UV)$ radiation from the Sun.Specifically,it effectively absorbs radiation with wavelengths shorter than approximately $3 	imes 10^{-7} \,m$ (or $300 \,nm$),which corresponds to the $UV$-$C$ and parts of the $UV$-$B$ spectrum.Therefore,radiation with wavelengths less than $3 	imes 10^{-7} \,m$ is blocked by the ozone layer.
